Genetically modified animals and immunodeficiency

Current Opinion in Immunology, 1993
Mouse strains with defined genetic defects engineered by the method of targeted gene disruption and homologous recombination have furthered our understanding of immune functions at the single gene level. More importantly, these mutant 'gene knockout' mice are powerful in vivo tools to dissect the complex mechanisms of lymphocyte development and ...

Genetic Modifiers of Atherosclerosis in Mice

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2001
Abstract: Common atherosclerosis has a genetic component, but it is difficult to determine the specific genes that play a role in atherosclerosis susceptibility in humans. We have used the apoE‐deficient mouse as a model system to examine the effects of candidate genes on atherosclerosis as well as to perform genomic experiments to map and isolate ...

Analysis of genetically modified oils

Progress in Lipid Research, 2000
Genetically modified oils with altered functional or nutritional characteristics are being introduced into the marketplace. A wide array of analytical techniques has been utilized to facilitate developing these oils. This article attempts to review the utilization of these analytical procedures for characterizing both the chemistry and some ...

Spatial Efficiency of Genetically Modified and Non-Genetically Modified Crops

Strategic Behavior and the Environment, 2015
When GM (genetically modified) and non-GM crops coexist, not all of the latter can be sold as GM-free crops as some of them will likely be contaminated by GM crops. The choice of producing non-GM crops will consequently depend on the surrounding crops. We therefore analyze the spatial distribution of GM and non-GM crops.

Genetically modified bacteria in agriculture

Biochimie, 2002
Certain bacteria isolated from soils possess properties that allow them to exert beneficial effects on plants either by enhancing crop nutrition or by reducing damages caused by pathogens or pests. Some of them, such as rhizobia, azospirilla, and agrobacteria, have been traditionally released in fields as seed inoculants and they often lead to ...

Genetically modified probiotics in foods

Trends in Biotechnology, 2003
Probiotics have many potential therapeutic uses, but have not been universally accepted because of a lack of understanding of their action. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have been modified by traditional and genetic engineering methods to produce new varieties.

Patents for genetically modified animals

Journal of Animal Science, 1993
Should genetically engineered animals be patented? This issue has been one of the most contentious as lawmakers have grappled with how best to protect intellectual property. Since the 1980 case of Diamond v. Chakrabarty, in which the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that a living microorganism is patentable, the U.S.

Genetically modified crops and allergenicity

Nature Immunology, 2005
Among the concerns surrounding genetically modified crops has been the possibility of expressing within a plant new proteins that may be allergenic. Using available technology, practical approaches have been adopted to help prevent the creation of foods that are allergenic.
